Are you looking to refresh your appearance and regain a youthful look? Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, might be the solution you’ve been searching for. At Cayra Clinic, we specialize in providing top-tier blepharoplasty treatments for international patients seeking aesthetic enhancement.
What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting droopy or sagging eyelids, removing under-eye bags, and tightening the skin around the eyes. This treatment can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on individual needs. The result is a more youthful, refreshed, and alert appearance.

Recovery: Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume normal activities within a week.
Recovery and Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential to ensure fast healing, minimize complications, and achieve optimal results. Here’s everything your patients need to know:
1. Immediately After Surgery
Expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort around the eyes for a few days.
Cold compresses can reduce swelling and soothe the area.
Keep your head elevated while resting to help minimize puffiness.
2. Medication and Eye Care
Take prescribed pain medications and antibiotics as directed.
Avoid rubbing your eyes or touching the surgical area.
Your surgeon may recommend lubricating eye drops to prevent dryness.
3. Recovery Timeline
Timeframe | What to Expect |
---|---|
First 24–48 hours | Swelling, bruising, mild discomfort; apply cold compresses. |
3–7 days | Sutures may be removed; swelling and bruising start to subside. |
1–2 weeks | Most patients can return to work and normal activities. |
4–6 weeks | Eyes appear more natural; final results gradually emerge. |
4. Activities to Avoid
Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or bending over for at least 2 weeks.
Do not wear contact lenses until your surgeon confirms it’s safe.
Avoid smoking and alcohol as they can slow healing.
5. Sun Protection
Avoid direct sun exposure on the eyes for several weeks.
Use sunglasses and broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the delicate eyelid skin.
6. Monitoring for Complications
Mild redness, swelling, and bruising are normal.
Contact your clinic immediately if you experience severe pain, excessive bleeding, sudden vision changes, or signs of infection.

Keep the eyelid skin moisturized with gentle, non-irritating creams.
Follow-up appointments with your surgeon ensure healing is on track.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle to prolong the youthful results of your eyelid surgery.
